CHRISTOPHER Darden, the prosecutor in the infamous O.J. Simpson murder trial, revealed that he and his co-counsel Marcia Clark “were more than friends” during the 1994 court case.

The 60-year-old lawyer told Entertainment Tonight about the extrajudicial activities during an interview published on Tuesday.

“We were more than friends,” Mr Darden told the program. “We were inseparable back then.”

Mr Darden insisted he “really can’t remember the details” of the fling but was certain that they didn’t kiss.

“I’m not a kisser,” he said. “Kissing is intimate. Kissing is more intimate than sex.”

Despite the dalliance, Darden said he and Clark haven’t spoken in years.

On Sunday, The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story won five Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Limited Series.
